Inventor: ROLFE HENRY E
IPC: B25B13/50
Filed: 1999-08-30
Abstract: A chuck tool usable to apply or remove threaded fasteners provided with an eye formation includes an elongated retainer sleeve having a cylindrical body presenting a forward cut-out adjacent a slotted base plate.      During use of the chuck, the enlarged eye formation of a fastener is disposed within the sleeve cut-out with the fastener shank disposed through the base plate slot. In this position, the longitudinal axis of the fastener is aligned with the central axis of the sleeve as laterally spaced points on the fastener eye nest within two recesses communicating with the sleeve cut-out. Rotary displacement of the fastener is accomplished following the insertion of a bifurcated drive insert into the rear of the sleeve whereupon two forward fingers on the insert straddle a significant portion of the fastener eye, between the two points engaged within the sleeve recesses. The assembly is driven in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction by the attachment of a suitable power mechanism to the rear of the drive insert.

Patent CA-2291835-A1 (CA)
Title: Load adaptive buffer management in packet networks
Inventor: AWEYA JAMES
IPC: H04L12/861
Filed: 1999-12-06
Abstract: The setting of the queue thresholds in active queue management schemes such as RED (random early detection) is problematic because the required buffer size for good sharing among TCP connections is dependent on the number of TCP connection using the buffer. Techniques for enhancing the effectiveness of such buffer management schemes are described. The techniques dynamically change the threshold settings as the system load, e.g., the number of connections, changes. The invention uses variables that correlate well with system load. The variables should reflect the congestion notification rate since this rate is closely related to the TCP congestion window size which in turn is closely related to the system load. This can be, for instance, a measured loss rate or can also be a computed value such as the drop probability. Using the techniques, routers and switches can effectively control packets losses and TCP time-outs which maintaining high link utilization.

Filed: 2000-02-03
Abstract: This invention enables a person working with a tape measure, to mark his measurement without having to reach for a pencil with one hand and hold the tape measure with the other.      The "TAPE-MATE" is a pencil holder that is placed, then fixed with two-way adhesive tape at the right spot on the side of the tape measure so that the pencil is aligned with the front bottom of the tape measure, where the tape pulls out for measurement. It is in this fixed position that it is ready for marking a measurement, without the extra movement of reaching for a pencil, and holding the tape measure in the other hand. The "TAPE-MATE" substantially saves time and movement, by eliminating reaching for a pencil, or looking for a lost pencil. Marking your measurement is quicker, easier and less work for the person using the tape measure.

Inventor: PICARD WAYNE F J
IPC: G06F3/0354
Filed: 2000-05-15
Abstract: A special fountain pen and ordinary paper can be used to input human handwriting into a computer. The fountain pens tip would have stamped serration's in the horizontal and vertical directions which would indicate pen-paper motion to a vibration sensor mounted in the tip (nib) of the pen. The pens serration's would cause the nibs two sides to vibrate as the tip traveled across the paper. There would be one serration for up movement, one for down and one for right to left horizontal movement. The vibration sensor would detect pen paper movement in each half of the nib with both halves vibrating indicating horizontal or diagonal movement depending on the relative strengths of the signals.     The signals would be amplified and coded to be transmitted wirelessly to a computer for further digital signal processing and handwriting analysis.
